With all due respect for his academic accomplishments, confidence in this domain in the current climate is usually a signal towards potential investors; it can be backed by anything between solid work (as I hope this turns out to be) and a flashy slide deck combined with a questionable character.
that's most likely because the people who work those jobs are usually struggling to make ends meet and desperately need every penny they can get. if their needs were met, i'm certain that would change.

.NET of today seems to stand out quite a bit in comparison to many other MSFT-backed projects. Especially if you look not at non-essential and possibly azure-related (a tiny part of ecosystem) tooling but rather at the "core" itself (that is, SDK, runtime and compilers) which is distributed under permissive MIT license which you can just take and do anything with.

To surprise of many outside of .NET community, it has much better performance than Swift[0][1][2] and lets you match performance of C and C++ in areas that matter.

[2] https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/... (better performance for short-running benchmarks sensitive to JIT)

[bonus] C# AOT vs Go https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/...

(no direct comparison but Tl;Dr: ARC and Swift defaulting to virtual dispatch that can't always be elided with WMO results in Swift having much lower (even if more consistent) performance)

FTX Has Billions More Than Needed to Pay Bankruptcy Victims
TikTok is a black box and so it is not really possible for people on the outside to know what it does behind the scenes. The lack of transparency and the ties to the CCP are indeed a national security threat to other countries. I recall reading analysis that showed very skewed representation of different keywords on TikTok compared to other platforms. I have trouble believing that this is actually organic and balanced. I think it is much more likely that it is a result of manipulation - how TikTok increases or reduces certain views. China has a tool that’s perfect to create political chaos in rival countries - I doubt they would pass up the opportunity to abuse it. I also find it suspicious that ByteDance would rather shut down TikTok than allow its sale (https://www.reuters.com/technology/bytedance-prefers-tiktok-...).

Let’s also not forget - China does not allow American social media to operate in their country. When trade is allowed, access to their market is highly controlled - for example Tesla being forced to use Baidu for mapping. TikTok can and should be banned on the grounds of this free trade issue, leaving aside privacy and national security problems.

Yes, it's just rendering into the texture redraws the entire window and you never really need to worry about redrawing only the parts of the screen that changed. But I think GGP was actually talking about redrawing the window every frame even if nothing's changed at all, which is indeed inefficent (though not necessarily "horribly").
Aren't probationary periods pretty standard, in many/all industries and countries too not just software?
It kind of depends on how much you are willing to "hack the system". If you just want a job for life, the European system is way better. But the American system can be better if you want to work for 5-10 years at a high-paying job out of school, living frugally to save up a lot, and then just quit, move to a very cheap area, and become an independent with a passive income stream. Of course, that mainly works if you do something like STEM (high-paid programmer, finance, etc.) But since the article is about having "more money", I thought it was worth mentioning.
IMO entire US security architecture within 1st island chain, aka japan, south korea, philippines, taiwan, anything within 1500-2000km. The math/economics behind cruise missile gigafactory flex is hinting they can make more commodity cruise missile per 1-2 weeks to bleed entire US inventory of missile defense, aka they can spam so much smart munitions, from purely ground launched platforms on mainland PRC (as in capability independant of airforce/navy), that any fixed targets, where fixed is anything that stays stationary for more than 2-3 hours, in 1IC is simply not defensible.

Broader TLDR is telegraphed/public US strategy last few years for the next decade+ to deter PRC is to preposition more hardware, in distributed manner, make more survivable (agile basing, marine MLRS) etc. PRC retort is saying, they're going to make so much advanced munitions, that they can hit essentially any hardware US+co can possibly preposition in theatre that has to sit still for more than a couple hours, with 100,000s to spare to degrade other strategic targets. It's basically conventional MAD for any US partners in region, who are mostly import dependant islands, significantly more so than PRC who is still a continental sized land power with associated resources land connections. PRC hinting they can degrade their critical/energy infra, lock down their ports from importing energy/calories, basically turn them into cuba/gaza, indefinitely, from purely PRC domestic inputs. So think twice about allowing US to operate from their territory in 1st island chain in TW scenario.

They're probably onto something since this development is almost 6 month old and non of US/western strategic writing is openly discussing it, because there simply isn't a viable counter, short of assuming China can't make 100,000s of a thing, or Made in China things must be duds. As many are relearning, having industrial capacity to make magnitude more commodity fires > wunderwaffles. West loves to mention about US ship building prowess during WW2, and how US simply outproduced adversaries. Now we have stats like PRC having 230x advantage in military ship building. Just military, PRC peacetime shipbuilding just passed 160 million dead weight tons, which is more than ENTIRE US ship building program in WW2. Extrapolate that to cruise missiles. IMO the biggest strategic development in region in a long time.
It's like tragedy of the commons. Open platforms are always susceptible to EEE (embrace extend extinguish) by design (would like to be proven wrong). And there will always be businesses (people) who when platform is popular enough would like to take over that for profit.
Yes at a systems level
The key here is the meaning of "ignoring" in "ignoring the situation completely with unpredictable results".

Most programmers (and pretty much all compiler writers) interpret it as meaning that the compiler can assume it can't happen (ignore the possibility) and translate accordingly.

Some, like mpweiher interpret it as meaning that the compiler must implement a trivial (but somehow unspecified) translation to the underlying hardware and let the behavior be what the hardware provides.

edit: We went through this many many times.

We recently interviewed a candidate, with 7 years of experience at a FAANG company, fail a really basic coding interview and we don't even make you write code.

I have no idea what these people expect. We ask coding questions, we have basic programming skills as a requirement, what do they think will happen if they get the job? Do they expect to just magically learn the required skills or hope that nobody will notice that they're not able to close their tasks?
In places like San Francisco it is an understood phenomenon that crime is underreported because nobody will investigate it anyways so why bother[1].

There are shows about cooking, but not many fun ones.

The Bear is definitely a good show and kinda about cooking, but it's definitely not a relaxing watch even though it's been winning comedy Emmys :D

As for sports Friday Night Lights is the only one that comes to mind, I watched it because it was good, not because it was about American Football (a sport I couldn't care less).

But the basic premise was that manga and anime allow the authors to go _completely_ bonkers with their ideas with no limitations on what's marketable.

Like One Punch Man shouldn't work, but it does. Or Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon is one. Or Delicious in Dungeon another one.

They're all way too wacky to ever pass the gauntlet of middle management deciding what goes on air in the US.

The market by itself can never solve this problem because the tragedy of the commons is not addressable by market mechanisms. It is impossible due to the game theory dynamics at play. You need top down force applied to align incentives with the public commons, it's the only way.
Until Apple makes their devices with user replaceable batteries all their environmental efforts are falling short. Making consumable part -- a battery -- an integrated component that requires special tools and training to replace is environmental crime in name of planned obsolesce. Everything else Apple does are second-order effects.

I don't think this hope is warranted. Our species is doing awful things to the planet:

* Animals and plants are dying at a mind-boggling rate. This has consequences for us eventually too, but on it's own, this is an atrocity.

* We're stuffing the air, sea and water with plastic, PFAs, insecticides, herbicides, etc. This will also have consequences for us.

* Our polar ice is melting, our vital weather systems collapsing, our topsoil eroding, our old growth forest near forgotten. As noted above, our oceans are doing some terrifying shit. Consequences are imminent.

* Inequality exacerbates all the above, and gives me serious doubt as to how our children will actually fare. Climate refugees are already a thing, and it could get soo much worse if our current path is maintained.

A stunning proportion of our leaders, megacorps, media, banks, and institutions are making this all worse. They subsidize and invest in fossil fuels, arms, big agri etc. They provide cover for them, enable them, and profit from them. They savagely beat anyone fighting against their acts into submission; sometimes with mortal methods, sometimes just with smears and legal abuse.

Have you considered any of this in your declaration of "we're in the best place ever"? I feel like we have a responsibility to our children and grandchildren to be honest about our fuck-ups.

Not a lawyer here. Why does an Article III judge need to get involved, and not in other administrative matters, like say, in an administrative immigration case?

Building an Effective Observability Strategy: A Comprehensive Checklist
Another question: do you consider yourself neither left nor right on the political spectrum, because you believe that society is fundamentally broken and both sides just further consumerism in different ways (the right supports big business directly, and the left tries to create equal opportunities for everyone to further consumerism)?

If so, then you may be an anarchist.

It is a policy problem. There was an OddLots podcast on the topic of NYC CRE to Resi conversions a while ago.

One issue is theres longstanding zoning laws on conversions that limit what can be converted based on year of construction. The year doesn't automatically move forward annually so a new law has to be passed to adjust it otherwise it remains stuck at 1965 or something like that.
They don't yet have `class` support.
While I also favour C# over Java, the languages, the runtimes it is a bit different, given the wide spectrum of JVM implementations in the wild.

Lets not forget that C# only exists because Sun won the lawsuit over J++, where several C# features were born (J/Direct => P/Invoke, events, JFC => Windows Forms, COM support), and Ext-VOS (the COM next generation runtime) paper refers to J++, before COOL became C#, and J# was introduced as migration path from J++.

Ironically, after all these years, as means to keep Azure relevant for the Java community, Microsoft has become a OpenJDK contributor by acquiring jClarity, including ARM support on Windows, better escape analysis, and has their own distribution.

And VSCode plugins for Java, developed in collaboration with Red-Hat, are much better than C# Dev Kit, without requiring a Microsoft account.
Unlike seemingly everyone making this claim, I have used an M1 Mac mini with 8GB RAM. It's fine, and certainly not useless.
I've been there, and it was a pain. All my backups were corrupted due to a faulty RAM module. Initially, I blamed the hard drives because they seemed to be failing right before my eyes. I was copying a large file; sometimes it copied okay, but occasionally it would become corrupted. Since then, I've been paying a premium for ECC.
In what sense aren't police labor? "Labor" literally just means "work"? It's not like the unions of managers, pilots, lawyers, NHL players or software developers aren't "labor unions"? Policemen are employed so their organization as employees is a labor union (or just "union" for short)?

Those are good points, but my problem with c# is that it isn't as performant in Linux. On Linux I'd suggest go as the more performant option. In any case I like both of those so much more than swift. Swift is slower even with bounds checks off. You can't turn them off in go.

You might be interested in Bruce Schneier's take on trust and what prevents predatory behaviour. In his book Liars and Outliers he gives a taxonomy of 4 elements: law, reputation, morality, and security.

Reputation and law are similar in that they're imposed by a community, but differ in that law follows a formally codified code, and of course the consequences imposed tend to differ. Morality is the internal motivation not to wrong others. Security describes physical/electronic measures that cause the predatory behaviour not to be practical in the first place, or at least raise the bar.

You get a corrupted bit in memory, you take and save that corrupted content to disk and no error correction on the disk level will help you.

I made the mistake of running a big PostgresSQL database on non-ECC memory once and I must say, it taught me some hard lessons.

This seems like a pretty big deal! A huge number of libraries rely on Axios, and with the growing popularity of alternative serverless runtimes, these libraries can't be used because of the dependency on XHR.
I think the comment about Kansas City shows that the big reason nobody hangs out there is that nobody actually lives there. And so since after 18:00 everybody these huge, built-up areas are suddenly available, you create excellent conditions for things that'll keep people from going there.

Complete non sequitur.

Historical flood frequency and the emergence of a novel deadly virus have literally nothing to do with each other. So no, I don't understand that.

The only way I could possibly understand that it's through the eyes of a 6 year old who just didn't like to be told what to do.

EDIT: I guess what you mean is there's a "type of person" that looks for reasons to tell you what to do. There aren't. There are however people who dedicate their lives to making sure people they will never know don't die of things like floods and viruses. If those people are villains to you then that says a whole lot about you.
It doesn't feel to me like much of C++'s complexity is just "the complexity of reality" being faithfully exposed.

I'd wonder whether that's just me being dim, but if so then I think Bjarne Stroustrup and Herb Sutter are dim in the same way. (Stroustrup, quoted approvingly by Sutter: "Inside C++, there is a much smaller and cleaner language struggling to get out." and "Say 10% of the size of C++ in definition and similar in front-end compiler size. ... most of the simplification would come from generalization.") And it doesn't seem likely to me that they are ignorantly overpessimistic about the complexity of C++.

It obviously worked for the candidate you mention, didn't it? Spent 7 years at FAANG, didn't know how to code.
it is not about liking it. They won't like it even with determinism. The idea is to NOT learn new things, and keep doing things the old inefficient way. More headcount and job security this way.
Oh yeah, weekly cleaning cycles, filters, special rinsing fluids and milk tubing that requires daily flushing. Also the machine needs to keep it's water block hot, else the startup time is a few minutes - so constant power draw.

If you have an office where the machine makes 100+ coffees it makes perfect sense. In a domestic setup it makes 0 sense.

Its features are driven by a consortium of Java companies, even if Oracle does the majority of the development.

This allows for a spectrum of JVM implementations, where basically any CPU capable of running some form of Java implementation has a JDK available.

Likewise, most frameworks are driven by set of companies, based on industry standards, where .NET due to its culture, most Microsoft shops tend to only adopt what comes from Microsoft.

It is a long discussion problem in the .NET community that when many FOSS projects finally manage to get enterprise adoption, Microsoft ends up coming with their own solution, which said enterprises then switch to, thus killing those FOSS efforts.

Listen to big podcasts like .NET Rocks, where this tends to be often discussed with their guests.
And it's trivially easy to ignore an error.

Also channels and WaitGroups are easy to misuse (well, that's why there's also an ErrGroup now).

I'd make Golang my 100% go-to language if it got rid of several footguns.

Though let's be real, that's absolutely certain to never happen, they take their backwards compatibility extremely seriously. So we'll have to keep relying on checkers and linters that alleviate some of the pains somewhat.
that seems micromanage-y and fraught with lack of psychological safety
There is no guarantee that local processing is going to have lower latency than remote processing. Given the huge compute needs of some AI models (e.g. chat gpt) the time saved by using larger compute likely dwarfs the relatively small time need to transmit a request.

The problem with government (or too-large unions) is that different jobs have different employment concerns. It's hard to legislate in a way that covers all cases from seasonal farm work to IT office jobs to airline pilots. A union gives you more fine-grained representation to address the problems specific to your profession and workplace.
